Using Default Options

You can use default options to provide predefined values for specific options.

The following examples show the full commands, which contain a complex value for the org parameter.

dcli> com vmware vmc sddcs list --org <someReallyLongOrgID>

dcli> com vmware vmc orgs get --org <someReallyLongOrgID>

By using default options, you can set the org parameter as a default option and skip adding it to the command.

dcli> env options set --option org --value <someReallyLongOrgID>

Performing this operation allows you to run the same commands without specifying the parameter value and still receive the same results.

dcli> com vmware vmc sddcs list

dcli> com vmware vmc orgs get

If you want to provide a value for the org parameter that is different to the value set for the default option, you can specify it manually.

dcli> com vmware vmc sddcs list --org <anotherReallyLongOrgID>
